What we fit in Cheshunt
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. We hang the door from above or run it on a floor rail depending on what the building can support.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Jobs we can carry out
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Cheshunt?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Planning the work around your site
Most installations in Cheshunt can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Cheshunt: your questions
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Cheshunt?
Yes. We replace trolleys, wheels, tracks, guides and damaged cladding on most makes of sliding and folding door. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before carrying out larger repairs or recommending replacement.
Which is better for our Cheshunt site, top-hung or bottom-rolling?
Top-hung keeps the floor flush but needs a strong structure overhead. Bottom-rolling suits lighter buildings but needs a clean, protected floor rail. We recommend one after checking both on survey.
Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Hertfordshire?
Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Hertfordshire, including timber-clad leaves, bottom-rolling gear for lightweight portal frames and wicket doors so staff and livestock handlers can get in without opening the main leaves.
